Hi everyone,
Today has been the first cold ride of the season. We used the bother heated seats and my heated grips, but the right one seemed no working. Is it a common fault ? Perhaps the cable has loosened? Any help will be appreciated!
My bike is a 2010 vision Tour, with 48.000kms on the clock.
Thank you very much in advance...

your going to have to pull the dash and do a continuity test and power test. There is no other way.
Grips do wear out

the right grip breaks at the stress point where the wire is twisted back and forth. Bought my vision used , the right grip has never worked. Common problem.

My right grip quit working as well. The wire going to it completely broke off at the base of the grip. I purchased a new set and a 1/4 turn ring to put on. I figure with less movement they might last longer.

Mine broke as well from twisting the throttle too much. I have Avon heated grips now. The wires seem to be beefier.
